"Violence erupted on Israel's borders with Syria, Lebanon and Gaza on 5/15/11, leaving at least eight dead and dozens wounded, as Palestinians marked what they term "the catastrophe" of Israel's founding in 1948."

"Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD [is] near in the valley of decision."  Joel 3:14

"I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning my inheritance, my people Israel, for they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land."  Joel 3:2

As I type these words, I am reminded; hatred of the Jew is not limited to the Palestinian or the Muslim. I read:

"...The point of this message, however, is that if people knew the truth about Jews, they would hate them just as I do, and would be committing 'hate speech' by rejecting the idea that Jews are God's Chosen People. God has chosen Jews to fulfill a role, but it is the complete opposite of what they purportedly represent. What they represent is the evil and wickedness of an Antichrist nature in the world...."

It continues: "Through their efforts, darkness covers the earth. Jews are a dead end for this planet."

The post goes on page after page spewing lies, and hatred for the Chosen People, the people of God. A people perhaps not of your choosing, perhaps not of mine, but of God'. A people who because of their disobedience to follow the commands of God allowed for the wild olive branch, the gentile nations, to be grafted into the root which is Jesus. A people who because of their disobedience to follow the commands of God have suffered much for centuries, yet God continues to love and protect His people and since God is not a man that He should lie, His Word is truth:

I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed...Genesis 35:12

Should God choose to reject the Jewish people because of their sin, many would say  "well deserved" yet these same people suffer greatly from arrogance, pride and in my opinion stupidity. IF God could so easily reject Israel for her sin and disobedience, where does that leave those of us, also the children of Abraham, who continue to sin and disobey - DAILY.?.

As government after government attempt to negotiate peace, peace at any price, remain steadfast in your resolve to stand with Israel, her people and her land. Never forget the word of the Psalmist:

"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May they be secure who love you!"
 Psalms 122

Geert Wilders, speaking in Tennessee:

'The only safe place in the Middle East for Christians is Israel. Israel deserves our support. Israel is a safe haven for everyone, whatever their belief and opinions. Israel is a beacon of light in a region of total darkness. Israel is fighting our fight. The jihad against Israel is a jihad against all of us. If Israel falls, we all fall.'
These people of the Book, these Chosen People of God, these people who gave us the Holy Scripture, the Apostles, the Prophets and our Saviour deserve better.
